Emergence of Stem Cell Therapies to Provide Growth Opportunities to the Global Osteoarthritis Market

Pune, India, October, 2018 /press release/- Market Research Future Published a Half-Cooked Research Report on Osteoarthritis Market Research Report

The global osteoarthritis market is poised to capture a CAGR of approximately 6.8% over the forecast period of 2017-2023, proclaims Market Research Future (MRFR) in a minutely analyzed research report. The market is growing persistently on account of growing global geriatric population as it accounts for more disability among the elderly population than any other disease. Elderly patients have been reported to experience radiographic osteoarthritis which increases as patients age. Rising populace of obesity is also considered to be the driving factor in the growth of the global osteoarthritis market since obesity has also been identified as a risk factor for osteoarthritis. Obesity reduces the skeletal-weight-to-body-mass which results in compressive forces to joints. Although the treatment market for osteoarthritis is not robust, increased prevalence of the disease has resulted in increased R&D activities which are expected to bring new treatment options to the market. Moreover, raising awareness about the disease may induce demand for medications and boost market growth. Low access to healthcare and the side effects of the treatment procedures are the most significant hurdles to the growth of the global osteoarthritis market. Stem cells treatments have been demonstrated as a possible treatment for osteoarthritis which is expected to provide growth opportunities to the global osteoarthritis market.

Regional Analysis

The global osteoarthritis market spans across the regions of the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa. The Americas hold the dominant position in the global osteoarthritis market. A robust healthcare sector, huge osteoarthritis patient pool, and high healthcare expenditure support the growth of the Americas market.

Europe has commanded the second position in the global osteoarthritis market. Availability of funds for research and development activities coupled with government support, high healthcare expenditure and growing prevalence of osteoarthritis in the region propels the growth of the Europe market.

Asia Pacific follows Europe in the global osteoarthritis market. The presence of a huge patient population, rising healthcare investments in the developing economies, and the untapped markets of the region provide a lucrative opportunity for market expansion. Moreover, favorable government policies aid market growth and will help Asia Pacific to emerge as the fastest growing market for osteoarthritis.
